Can't you find a friend Reform/Liberal female rabbi to oversee your immersion? They might hang out at the Sternberg centre anyway and it would only take half an hour out of their day.
Trust me: you want your first immersion to be comfortable. And the lying sucks. If you keep Taharat haMishpacha afterwards, you can always decide on what mikvah to use for other months, but I strongly believe your first immersion should be stress-free!

Good luck and may you have a meaningful tevilah.
